What if Need for Speed: Most Wanted was real life?

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if Need for Speed were real? Sure, we've had movies like Fast and the Furious, and the soon-to-be movie version of the Need for Speed franchise itself, but today EA and Criterion went sped ahead and released a live-action trailer for the upcoming open-world racing game.

As you can tell from this TV Spot trailer, and the recent "Get Wanted", Criterion has placed a ton of emphasis on outrunning the cops. In the game you'll have to avoid roadblocks, outrun dozens of cop cars, and use racing wits to outsmart them — that includes seamlessly switching cars mid-chase to fake them out. All the while, you'll be competing with friends and rivals in a seamless world that rids the game of typical game menus.

Get ready to stick it to the fuzz when Need for Speed: Most Wanted releases for Xbox 360, PS3, PS Vita, and PC on October 30, 2012.
